Yeah, I get that. What someone believes is all up to them.

Well the original Hebrew word for it is "Yom" which means a literal 24 hour period. And in Exodus is has the same word when describing the work week (6 days you shall labor and work and on the seventh you shall rest).

If by 'scientifically' you mean from an evolutionist standpoint, then no, the Genesis record is TOTALLY different from the theory of evolution's order. For example.....


 * Evolution- Sun before earth
 * Genesis- Earth before sun


 * Evolution-Sea creatures before land plants
 * Genesis-Land plants before sea creatures


 * Evolution-Land animals before trees
 * Genesis-Trees before land animals


 * Evolution-Reptiles before birds
 * Genesis-Birds before reptiles


 * Evolution-Sun before plants
 * Genesis-Plants before sun


 * Evolution-Death before man
 * Genesis-Man before death

And those are only a few of many examples. So Genesis and the theory of evolution are NOT compatible in any way, shape, or form.
